Hi everyone,

I made this map of the US in Photoshop, what do you all think?



Larger version available in the Gallery, although I had to shrink it a bit so I could upload it Sad.

Really cool! Though you should push the Texas flag further right so less of the star is cut off.

Sounds like a good idea, as long as I don't push it too far to the east and have an unnecessary gray gap in western Texas.

In that event I would just manually fill it in with the same shade of blue.

This is a cool concept and overall I think you've done it well.

Sadly, most state flags are awful (random blue/yellow banner with ugly coat of arms plastered on it). Great job though.

Great idea, why didn't I think of that before?

As you can see, I tried to focus on the coats of arms/distinctive features of the flags in general.

And thank you all Smiley

Very cool.  I've seen it done before, but it's always nice to have a copy of your own that you own the rights to.

Can't imagine why ex-Confederate states would possibly choose to use something other than a seal on a background of Army blue.

Very good.  Like Lief said, the only change I'd make is with the Texas flag, but I like it. Smiley
